I've been watching and for the sake of summary and curiosity, is my
following impression accurate?

   Summary: Blockers will not be able to do anything 
            after blocking except for blowing up.

I added the blowing up part, but perhaps that has changed at some
point. I know I could before and there needs to be a way to get rid of
them somehow. If that is the case, it might be neat to add a feature
where selecting a blocker and making him a blocker again automatically
made him a bomber. Of course, this will have the side effect of
quickening the ability to position and set-off a bomber.
